The piggie is kind of scary. All that change is impressive. Looks like you have some kind of sloping surface that you've piled it on. The busyness of the background does complement the plain white of the piggie well.

To me this photo has a real "snapshotish" feel to it because of what I assume is a flash pointed directly at the subject (cute btw). Also the little white points in the costume or jacket distract from the face of your subject. I don't know if this is from in camera sharpening or post procesing.

As far as the crop goes: I would have tried to cut out the rest of the toy, doll, whatever he is holding in his left hand as it is also a distracting element.

As always this is IMO.

Good luck too you.

I happen to LIKE this nose...thank you very much.

This is a wonderful Close up, it̢۪s a shame about the Red Eye, a few minutes extra in the editing and this would be a really good image

Knowing how kids just LOVE to be photographed (that's sarcasm), this must have been one of those "from the hip" shots. Course, I wasn't there and you might not have had to do it like that.

The way he's leaining works to make the photo more interesting and realistic--one can imagine him in the midst of playing with his...Woody character?
